What's the taste of liquid bromine?

summary

Liquid bromine is a dark reddish brown liquid with the chemical expression Br2. It is easy to volatilize and can freeze into solid at low temperature. It has extremely strong toxicity and corrosiveness. What's the taste of liquid bromine? Let's talk about it

What's the taste of liquid bromine?

At room temperature, it can emit strong irritating smoke, stimulate the mucous membrane of eyes and respiratory tract, make people cry and cough, burn skin, produce severe tingling, and is not easy to treat. Bromine is very active and strong oxidant,

When it meets with arsenic and antimony, it emits sparks and combines. The affinity with hydrogen is very strong, similar to chlorine but slightly weak. When mixed with organic matter, it can cause combustion. Soluble in alcohol, ether, potassium bromide solution, alkali and carbon disulfide, soluble in water.

Ethylene and other reducing substances can make bromine water fade, which is a very common reaction in high school chemistry. During storage, it should be treated according to the requirements of both corrosive and oxidizing reagents. Production units generally add about one third of distilled water as a protective agent to prevent volatilization. It should be stored separately. Store with glass stopper.

matters needing attention

When the temperature is low, attention should be paid to heat preservation to prevent bromine and distilled water from freezing and breaking the container. It should not be mixed with organics, combustibles, ammonia and acids. Bromine should be embedded in wooden boxes of vermiculite, dry clay or calcium carbonate. Fire fighting method: in case of fire accident, the rescue personnel should wear gas mask and rubber gloves, stand in the wind and put out the fire with foggy water and dry sand.
